The Trading Reputation of Jason Bond Picks:
Jason Bond is a well-known day and swing trader of small cap stocks priced between $1-10. He founded his educational stock trading newsletter called Jason Bond Picks in 2011, and has been highly profitable ever since. But is there a deceptive reason for all of his success? Is he fooling his members into purchasing subscriptions or are they actually making thousands of dollars in the market alongside him as well?
As a service positioned in the “stock trading” space, which naturally focuses on making money, there are a lot of emotions at stake, ultimately resulting in an abundance of criticism from both members and non-members – as fair or unfair as it may be. If he makes money on a trade, the skeptics have their doubts, and if he loses money on a trade, the haters come out in full force. Are the disbelievers justified in their thinking? Is Jason Bond Picks a legitimate service or is it a total sham?
Let’s take a closer look below.
Jason Bond Picks Complaints – Why Are Subscribers Complaining?
We should start by pointing out that Jason Bond currently has over six thousand active subscribers, with his most popular service being Swing & Long Term Trading. He also offers a learning-intensive mentor service called Millionaire Roadmap. Swing Trading is the flagship strategy that Jason Bond Picks was built on, and then Long Term Trading and Millionaire Roadmap were rolled out later due to countless member requests. You simply can’t build such a devoted subscriber-base by selling “snake oil”.

But even with these impressive numbers and loyal followers, there are still some outsiders who decide that Jason Bond Picks is a scam without even experiencing any of the programs first-hand, or members who have actually joined one of them never to have found success. You’re probably wondering how this could be the case if so many clients are pleased, so let’s dive into the most popular complaint I’ve heard about Jason Bond Picks over the years.
#1 – Jason Bond Pumps Stocks Through Alerts, Leaving His Followers in The Dust.
Jason Bond does not intentionally pump stocks, but the fact of the matter is that small caps are dynamic and volatile. Share prices move around constantly whether he buys & sells them or not. And when thousands of members receive his text & email alerts and subsequently follow him into a trade, it could potentially drive up the price a bit in the short-term. But it’s merely a result of how the stock market works. If there are more buyers than sellers, the price will rise. When members complain about this, it’s clear that they don’t yet have a proper understanding of the market.

They also fail to realize or simply ignore that Jason consistently warns against Blindly Mirroring. He sends alerts for complete transparency, to prove that he has “skin in the game” – not for uneducated followers to copy. Unfortunately, that doesn’t stop a handful of members from doing it and there’s not much that Jason himself can do about it. Just keep in mind that you as the subscriber are still in complete control of your own portfolio and it’s in your best interest to understand how to manage it properly. How much someone can learn from Jason and the success they can ultimately achieve is 100% in their control depending on how they utilize the services.
The Primary Objective of JBP is Education, Learning Concepts and Applying Them on Your Own:
As previously stated, Jason’s goal is to share his exact buys and sells for transparency into exactly what moves he’s making and how he’s applying the concepts taught in his video lessons – not for you to ignorantly copy. He does have the option to send alerts without having a financial stake in the stock himself (and thus not benefiting from any sort of “pump” that ensues), but then he’d run into yet another argument with his detractors – “Why doesn’t JB have any skin in the game? Is he not confident in his strategy?”. You see, it’s truly hard for Jason Bond to win with his doubters no matter what road he takes or how honest he is. The fact is – it’s an industry full of skeptics.
In the end, the overarching objective of Jason Bond Picks is education – learning the concepts he teaches through video lessons, webinars, watch lists, and the chat room, and then applying them on your own in a live trading environment. If you commit yourself to learning, you’ll realize that you don’t need to wait for his text and email alerts before making a move – you’re armed with the information and know-how to capitalize on opportunities in the market on your own. Jason Bond can turn you into a completely independent trader if you want him to – but that’s your own personal choice.

Unfortunately, many members are simply seeking a “shortcut” to riches and think they can copy their way to success without educating themselves. That’s what leads to losing, inconsistent, and unsatisfied members. You have to take advantage of the learning tools provided and then apply that newfound knowledge on your own if you truly want to succeed with this service. Just ask three-year Jason Bond Picks member, Kyle Dennis, who was able to turn $15,000 into over $1,000,000 by applying the concepts Jason teaches on mainly biotech stocks, and certainly not copying Jason’s buys and sells alert-for-alert.
Conclusion – Jason Bond Picks is Not a Scam, But is Not For Blindly Mirroring Either:
So many individuals look to the stock market for an easy way to make money – a shortcut or get-rich-quick strategy. Almost every single time, this approach will actually result in a loss of money. If that’s the way you’re thinking when it comes to making money on Wall Street, you need to change your mindset and focus on education. Learning Jason Bond’s market-tested strategies and then applying them on your own can work, not attempting to copy his buys and sells every time you receive an alert without knowing anything about how stocks even behave. The latter is a recipe for disaster.

In the end, it’s not so much about the service/newsletter itself, it’s more about how the subscriber utilizes it. You can watch the video lessons and webinars, review the watch lists on a daily basis, interact in the chat room with hundreds of other traders, use the alerts to gain insight into what Jason is thinking in various situations, and ultimately educate yourself to a point where you’ve become an independent, profitable, and consistent trader. Or you can simply be a blind, uneducated follower, quick to blame the program for your failures in the market without putting the necessary effort in to achieve consistent success.
Fact: Simply joining Jason Bond Picks (or any stock trading newsletter/educational service) won’t guarantee success – it’s up to you to take advantage of all the educational materials provided, soak it in, and become a knowledgable, independent trader.

I signed up for Jason Bond Picks alerts for 3 months ($297.00) couple of weeks ago, and I totally agree with the concept of studying, learning and doing your own due diligence when it comes to choose which ticker to trade. But what piss me off is that his alerts and/or watchlist comes after market is open (sometimes 3 hours later) and “most often then not” (as he likes to say on his videos) after he took a position. I understand we should not mirror anybody’s trade. But since he is the expert and are charging us for the service and also based on his marketing speech to sell his DVDs/alerts he specifically says that he does the work for us in searching the stocks with a potential swing trade. But if we, as subscribers, can not get the watchlist ahead of time, how should we do our own due diligence to decide on if we want to take a position or not on that particular stock?
Hi Claudio – you should definitely be receiving the daily watch lists prior to market open 99% of the time. Sometimes it might come out a bit later due to questionable market conditions or Jason’s personal schedule. I’d recommend reaching out to his Support Team to see if there’s anything they can do to fix that. The delay might have something to do with your email provider (or maybe even something on JBP’s end). In the meantime, you might want to consider logging into the JBP dashboard directly in order to check the watch lists each morning. They’re typically posted there prior to being emailed out. The watch lists, alerts, DVD’s, and other learning materials can provide insight into the types of stocks he’s trading, the patterns he’s looking for, and eventually allow members to scan, research, and generate watch lists and trade plans of their own.
Matt Thomas – Daily Watch Lists are rarely delivered via email or published on the JBPicks website before the market opens. What are you talking about? That is just BS, and it is injurious BS to boot.
how is your experience so far? I was considering buying the subscription.
